Creating an adapter service/target
After you import the adapter profile on the IBM® Security Identity server, create a service/target so that IBM Security Identity server can communicate with the managed resource.
Before you begin
About this task
You must create an administrative user account for the adapter on the managed resource. You can provide the account information such as administrator name and password when you create the adapter service. Ensure that the account has sufficient privileges to administer the users. For information about creating an administrative account, see the documentation for the managed resource.
To create or change a service, you must use the service form to provide information for the service. Service forms might vary depending on the adapter. The service name and description that you provide for each service are displayed on the console. Therefore, it is important to provide values that make sense to your users and administrators.

- In the My Work pane, click .
- On the Select the Type of Service page, select Thycotic Adapter Service.
